Yellow leaf mosaic of bhindi crop spreads

Yellow leaf mosaic of bhindi crop spreads Jassid and borers.
This disease is caused by a complex consisting of the monopartite begomovirus Bhendi yellow vein mosaic virus and a small satellite DNA beta component.
BYVMV can systemically infect bhendi upon agroinoculation but produces only mild leaf curling in this host.
